In the meantime, here are some tips on saving energy, thus paying less.

Energy saving means minimizing energy and yet achieving a similar end result. Less energy expenditure brings many advantages – you can save money and protect the environment. For the generation of energy valuable natural resources have to be used, for example, coal, oil or gas. Less energy means that we also preserve these resources for the future.

WHY IS IT IMPORTANT TO SAVE ENERGY?

If people need less energy, no new power plants need to be built or energy imported from another country.

What is “life”? What does it have to do with energy consumption?

Almost all products of daily life influence the energy consumption, especially when one considers their lifetime: production, use, and end of life. In many cases the use phase dominates. For example, plastics are the most resource-efficient materials. In their use phase, plastic products help save more energy than is necessary for their production. You should, therefore, buy water in plastic bottles because lighter packaging means less fuel consumption during transportation.

WHAT CAN I DO TO SAVE ENERGY?

There are many suggestions on how to save energy on the Internet. Here are some ideas:

Change your transport behavior: use public transport, walk or ride by bike rather than by car

Reduce the heating of your house by 1 °C, close the windows while you heat

Purchase products that are packed with light materials

Turns off the light and all devices when you are not using them, energy saving lamps

Use plastic bags several times

WHAT IMPACT DO MATERIALS HAVE ON THE ENVIRONMENT?

In our daily life, we need a lot of materials. Wood, metal, glass, and plastic have an impact on our environment. Think about the effects of any product you use. The lighter, for example, an object, the less fuel is needed for its transport. A heavy suitcase in the trunk of a car consumes more fuel during transport. The same applies to every product packaging. So you can save the environment by buying food stuffed in light materials.
